As he sat patiently in the pizza joint, he had both hands tapping out the tempo of one of the songs stuck in his head and both feet swinging like crazy, as he craned his neck to try and peer at the clock and see how far away it was from closing time.
It wasn't rare for Johnny to drop by after a day's adventuring had come to a standstill and wait for Zippy to finish work so he could tag along home with him or hitch a lift back to his own place. The Boss didn't really like him waiting in the foyer as he made customers "nervous and make the place look like we let in anyone off the street" to which Johnny would just reply that he was jealous all the attention was on him and not the delicious pizza. The Boss had even made Johnny earn a spot on one of the waiting chairs by making him a human sandwich board and to walk up and down the boardwalk but after he wandered away with some girls, sandwich board still on, The Boss knew Johnny wasn't reliable and made a mental note not to hire any of Zippy's other friends.
Johnny was beyond bored, there wasn't even a tv in the joint, and he'd spent the last three minutes playing chicken with himself to see how close he could get his tongue next to the flame of his lighter. Ding-ding-ding. The sound of those bells attached to the front door were like the bells from heaven as Johnny snapped his lighter shut and pocketed it, rotating his snap-back frontward, and greeting the customer with a wide grin. He was hoping for someone he knew so he at least had someone to wait with while Zippy cruised around peeking into the local's homes for $12 an hour and free slices of pizza. He could feel The Boss's hawk eyes staring him down, watching so he wouldn't scare away the next customer but he remained perfectly still and even let the man do his job and take the order. Johnny hadn't seen the front of the girl but the back was a definite 8 and something to tell the boys about the next time he saw them (even though they were both so tied down with their love lives it made him want to projectile puke all over them).
He was ecstatic to see the face of the new customer revealed to be one of his friends from school. She was the same age as him and in the same year level and they had pretty much the same friends, there was a god and he was granting Johnny the best get-out-of-boredom-free card ever! Johnny sprung up from the chair, in his head looking like a highly trained gymnast, and over toward his new companion ready to greet her in case she hadn't seen him sulking in the corner.
"ASH! Looking smoking may I add? What brings you over to this side of town? Don't you have places to go, people to see? Still single? What's your phone number again?"
Johnny hoped that The Boss dropped the pizza dough over and over and Zippy took his precious time because he finally had some socializing to do and he couldn't think of any other conversational partner better than Ash. She wasn't like the other girls he knew like the impossibly smart Audrey or the incredibly funny Scar, no, she was both smart and hilarious but she was also something else that Johnny couldn't quite define and it made him want to pull out his wallet and offer to buy her a nice cold Coke. He hoped she liked coke because he wasn't a fan of Fanta, the orangeness and all, and Red Bull was out of his price range.

YOU CAN BE MY Waking up to the sound of your stomach grumbling was not the most pleasant thing in the world. Ashlen groaned as she looked down at her noisy stomach. She snarled at it, thinking that if it wasn’t a part of her she would damn it to hell for waking her up. Although she was pretty sure she was already going to hell so that meant that her stomach was going with her. Guess it was a win/win situation. Now that she was awake though, and obviously hungry, she guessed she should actually get up. She rolled over and looked at the small digital clock that sat on her bed side table and groaned once more. It was already 5:30. She had literally wasted her entire day by sleeping. Not like she would have really done anything anyways. She was more of a night person. She always had been. Which was why she was dreading starting school again because well, it meant she actually had to be awake during the day.
Ash slid out of her bed, collapsing on the floor and crawling over to her closet. She took her hair out of its current messy bun and looked at her face in the mirror. She didn’t look too bad for having just woke up. She had showered before she had gone to bed so there was no use doing it again. Bad on her hair and all. She reached up trying to pull down her blue polka dot skirt. For some reason she just felt like looking cutesy today. Not that she expected to see anyone or anything. And not like feeling like looking cutesy was an out of norm thing for her. Today she was feeling 50’s-esque though, hence the saddle shoe heels she was now digging through her closet for. Once she had put it all together she though she looked more than some prep school girl more than anything, but that didn’t bug her. She threw her hair up into a messy bun once more and grabbed her keys and phone and was out the door and on the hunt for food.
Everything she was passing didn’t peak her interest in the slightest. That was until she passed the local pizza place. The only reason it slightly interested her was because she wondered if Zippy was working. She pulled into the parking lot, pulling into the closest parking space that she could get and turning off the ignition. She got out of the car and walked into the pizza place. The overwhelming swell of pizza over took her as she walked towards the counter. Before she could get there though she was bombarded by a boy. She smiled when she realized the male now next to her side was Johnny.
‘Why thank you. You as well.’ Ash smirked at the comment. And this was why she loved hanging out with Johnny. She was pretty sure she could be wearing a trash bag and have mud all over her and her hair look like a bird’s nest and he would still tell her she was hot. ‘Pizza. Zippy. The usual.’ Ash couldn’t help but laugh at his last two questions. Oh Johnny. ‘Am I that forgettable that you already lost my number? And here I was thinking we had something special. I’m hurt.’ Ash fained disappointment and hurt as she put her hand on her heart waiting for the boy’s answer. |

Bright lights often sent him staring into space, noises often made him crave music and sent him on a tapping tempo frenzy, smells often made him hungry and hunt out food as soon as possible but girls...girls were his big weakness. It didn't matter who they were or what they looked like, he couldn't help himself, he just had to open his mouth and blabber on about anything and everything in the hopes that somehow he'd charm their pants off because it had worked once or twice and Johnny wasn't one to shake off an old habit.
She wasn't too startled in his buoyant greeting and he was happy to converse with her realizing they were both after similar things. She was after pizza and was hoping to run into Zippy and he was after Zippy and hoping to run into pizza. It was like fate or something and Johnny was more than happy to see where it took them.
"Thanks for the compliments, Ash, but I'm taken and it seems you're looking for my delectable piece of man meat as well. You might want to park that cute little butt of yours though because The Boss takes his swweeeeeet time and Zippy dawdles like nobody's business. SERIOUSLY! He left me waiting here for hours once talking to someone about crusts. You have to admire the man though, he knows his business, and that's sexy!"
He added a wink just for emphasis to show how attractive a man who knows his business was, he didn't really know if that was true and it sent him on a tangent of what his business would be. He was good at playing the xbox in his underwear and skipping school, he could make an apple pipe in under three minutes and down three beers in less than one, he was also quite good at the guitar and zippy said he had a lovely singing voice but he wasn't sure if they counted as business or not. He'd have to find out that was for sure, it'd be a sure way to a girl's heart or at least their bedroom.
As Ash feigned heartbreak, he couldn't help but grin wickedly at her melodramatics, if it was any other girl they'd have probably slapped him by now or walked away in which both cases he'd still keep up with them persistently. Benny's girlfriend often told him it was going to result in a restraining order but he wasn't too stressed, he had heaps of smart friends, well, Audrey...and she was probably going to be a lawyer anyway so he had that covered.
"Nahh, just updating the old cellular device with PICTURES! SAY CHEESE!"
He whipped out his phone and snapped a quick pic of Ash before sliding it in his pocket before she could protest. He'd already gotten Zip, Bennett and Zoe and a sneaky one of Maya as she left Biology. He was yet to get Mia as she was always surrounded by girls and he couldn't be bothered going to college and tracking down the old Griffin boy who was probably drowning in hot college women, making a mental note to find out and investigate asap. He was hoping to have pictures for the 207 contacts in his phone by next Wednesday, it was perfect procrastination from homework (Audrey would kill him) and it was an excuse to catch up with everyone, he considered showing Ash the other snaps he'd taken but got distracted by the smell of the kitchen.
"So what'd you order? And are you gonna share it with me? Zip's probably filled his belly already and The Boss won't let him take home a freebie if it's for me, that guy really has it in for me! You should ask for extra pepperoni, that's my fave! If you got just cheese, I'm probably going to have to disown you, I'm a meat kinda guy! It has to be covered in it..you?"

YOU CAN BE MY Ashlen really had gotten use to the way Johnny was. She had been friends with him for a long while and she could easily remember the first time she had met him and how he had acted. He had very much hit on her and if she was any other girl she probably would have freaked, but she was Ashlen. She just rolled with the punches. She was a huge flirt herself and so of course she flirted back. Ever since then they had been friends. They just meshed like that. She loved hanging out with him because she always felt so relaxed and well it was all just fun.
‘Your delectable piece of man meat? He told me I was his one and only! The liar!’ She giggled at this. She loved messing with her friend like this. It just was how they were. ‘How rude of the boss? Does he not know who we are? Gosh.’ Ashlen crossed her arms over her chest making a mock pouty face, sitting on one of the counter area seats. She crossed her legs making sure there was no way that anyone could look up her skirt. She might be easy sometimes, but not that easy. Give her some credit.
She leaned her arm onto the counter and placed her chin into her open hand letting it rest there. She couldn’t help but smile and shake her head at the boy. He really was something else. Ashlen tried to think through the guys she hung out with and how they were. Somehow she seemed to attract boys like this. Well not exactly like Johnny, they all had their own quirks, but the same general idea. Zippy and Benny were a lot like the boy that stood in front of her so no wonder they were the three best friends that anyone could ever have. She was just glad that they let her tag along sometimes, even if Benny’s girlfriend obviously hated her guts despite Benny’s protest that she didn’t.
Ashlen scrunched up her nose and stuck her tongue out as he took the picture. She wasn’t really opposed to him randomly snapping pictures, especially since she knew she looked good today. If it were anyone else though she probably would have stopped them, but it was Johnny. This was just how he was. And she was used to it. ‘Haven’t ordered yet. You ambushed me before I could. Of course I will but only because you asked so nicely. Meat kind of guy, huh? Of course it has to have pepperoni though.’ Ashlen reached out and poked him and then turned her attention to the counter, quickly ordering a pizza. ‘Just cheese is plain and boring anyways.’ |

She was very much just like a guy but a really hot girl so she was basically a dream come true for Johnny, he could drink a beer with her or head down to the skate-park with Benny and smoke AND he could ogle her at the same time. If he ogled any of his other female friends they'd definitely hit him or yell at him or in Zoe's case worse, ground Bennett from seeing him, luckily for him Zoe never grounded him for too long. She was a funny one too, not quite as funny as Scar, but definitely up there with the best of them and he slowly wondered if she was friends with Scar as she jumped up onto one of the bench chairs and he bounced onto one too and joined her.
"The Zipster probably told you that so you wouldn't have a broken heart. He's not very good at dealing with emotional chicks, you see, so he took the easy way out and forgot to cover his tracks. Sorry to shatter your heart into a million pieces but I'm pretty much his everything, although, I think we can come to some sort of agreement! And I wouldn't speak so loudly about the big man, he might burn your pizza or something, he's ruthless! This one time after studying, Audrey and I hit up this place and he "FORGOT" out garlic bread! What KIND of MONSTER does that?"
He remembered that day vividly, he didn't remember a lot of things, mainly girl's butts and the dates for the next party but that day was glued into his brain for eternity. He had really wanted garlic bread, so bad. He'd wanted to fight him or something, throw the leftover pizza in The Boss's face but Audrey had calmed him down and said she had some in her freezer back at home. He wondered what Ash would do if they forgot her pizza right now, would she put up a fight or would she have some frozen back at home? He was glad to hear that she liked pepperoni on her pizza, and if she had ordered some, he was definitely going to have to steal a slice. She prodded him, pretty hard too, so he prodded her right back. Ash was the type of girl that would keep a game like this going for hours and he wondered if it would break out into a full fledged prodding war.
"So what are your plans for the weekend Ash? Going to hit up any parties? Go to the beach? Maybe read a book? Any hot dates? See a friend? Or a movie? I'm probably just gonna go over to Benny's and kick it if Zoe hasn't stolen him for the night or something maybe I'll go hit up the pier with Zippy and go girl watching. YOU SHOULD COME!"
